Cell-phone and home-phone respondents included in this research: SurveyUSA interviewed 500 San Francisco area adults 05/01/12. This research was conducted multi-mode, using blended sample. Respondents who use a home telephone (77% of adults) were interviewed on their home phone in the recorded voice of a professional announcer. Respondents unreachable on a home telephone (23% of adults) were shown a questionnaire on their smartphone, laptop, tablet or other electronic device. In this survey, cell phone and landline respondents have different perspectives: cell phone respondents are more supportive of the Occupy movement and less likely to have changed their minds about it than those reachable on home telephones, but among those cell phone respondents who have changed their minds, as with those landline respondents who have changed their minds, the shifts tend to be from support to opposition: 8% of cell phone respondents originally supported and now oppose the movement, while 1% of cell phone respondents originally opposed and now support. Among landline respondents, a similar shift: 28% originally supported, now oppose; 5% originally opposed, now support.
